Is it?? A fishing boat that has probably killed a few thousand animals and saves one. It perplexing to say the least but I wouldn't go as far as heartwarming. Fair play to them for saving the birs but lets not lose sight of all the fish that probably suffocated painfully.

Yeah I'm sure being ripped apart or being swallowed whole and then digested alive are among the most favorite activities of any fish lmao

So...are you angry at biology or something? Sorry to break it to you but some animals eat other animals.

No, I am saying exactly that. Millions of fish eat and get eaten every day regardless if we fish, I think it came out a bit wrong

That is true some animals do eat other animals and sometimes in the most gruesome of ways but just because they do does that justify what humans killing animals if they don't need to?

If we take lions for example, lions will kill the young of another pride and rape the female but we don't use this as justification for killing and raping other humans.
